I think that if you have not kayaked in the sea, you need to be pretty strong and know how to handle the kayak when there are waves.
Thank you for your feedback! Sea conditions can vary from day to day, and while our stable tandem kayaks are suitable for beginners, a bit of upper-body strength can be helpful when there are waves. We always assess the conditions carefully before every tour to ensure it's safe to go out, and our guides are there to support everyone throughout the experience. We hope you still enjoyed your time on the water, and we'd love to welcome you back! Kind regards, The Trekking Hellas Rhodes team
Amazing three hours in the most gorgeous blue sea with a small group plus two guides, George and Juliet. We went into a little cave then had a swim in Ladiko Bay, where the water was beautiful and warm. George was a great storyteller and gave us a bit of history about how Rhodes rose from the sea, and pointed out baby seagulls too. Juliet was also very interesting and friendly. Both guides were knowledgeable, thoughtful and took care explaining ‘how to kayak’. We were also given some watermelon!
Thank you for your wonderful review! We're so happy you enjoyed your time on the water and that George and Juliet helped make it such a memorable experience. We'll be sure to pass on your kind words to them. We hope to welcome you back for another kayaking adventure in Rhodes soon! Warm regards, Fanny
Lovely knowledgeable team! Unfortunately we didn’t complete the trip, it was our first time and the water was quite choppy so we struggled, but the team were very kind and very professional in true Greek spirit. As we couldn’t complete it they very kindly collected us from the spot we stopped at and even drove us back to where we parked. We would certainly try kayaking again! What a wonderful team. I promise next time we come to Rhodes we will have had some practice back home in flat water, we would definitely like to come back. 10/10!
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're really glad you still had a positive experience despite the challenging conditions. Safety always comes first, and we're happy we could help make the day as comfortable as possible. We'd love to welcome you back on your next visit to Rhodes. We look forward to seeing you again! Kind regards, Fanny

Thank you so much for the great review! We hope to meet you again! Kind regards, Fanny
An Amazing experience, brilliantly organised by Trekking Hellas Would highly recommend for a trip you’ll never forget
Thank you so much Paul for your wonderful review!! We sincerely hope you never forget us and that we might see you again one day for more fun on the water or even on land!
We loved out kayaking tour. Amazing views and chance to swim in crystal clear water. Our guides were helpful friendly and very knowledgeable. We would love to go again for a longer trip.
Thank you so much for your kind words! I’m really happy you enjoyed the views and the swim in the crystal-clear waters. It was a pleasure having you with us, and I’ll share your feedback with the team. We’d love to see you again for a longer kayaking adventure next time! Kind regards, Fanny
We had such a fun time doing sea kayaking, we've kayaked before but never on the open sea which is such a different experience! We started off with a warm-up and a short briefing before we went on the water. The guides are so funny and knowledgeable, special shoutout to George, Jimmy and Fanny! On top of that the bays we visited were absolutely gorgeous, the water colors are insane and we even went in a cave! Overall, my friends and I had an amazing time and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking to do a different experience in Rhodes
Thank you so much for your lovely review! I’m really happy you enjoyed your first open-sea kayaking experience, it’s definitely something special! It was such a pleasure guiding you, and I’ll pass your kind words on to George and Jimmy too. So glad you loved the bays, the colors, and the cave! Hope to see you again for another adventure in Rhodes! Warm regards, Fanny
